Wrong groovy compiler version after oomph setup

[simartn]

Description

When I setup my IDE with oomph and add the groovy eclipse plugin I am not able to start with a non default compiler.

If I set the configuration option groovy.compiler.level to 40 it applies the option only after a restart.

This is likely because the option is set by oomph after the start of the IDE and groovy-eclipse does not catch the configuration.

Resolution options

• Detect programmatic configuration changes and ask to restart, as done when changing the compiler level in the option page.
• Document the behaviour as intended. Maybe somebody knowns a way how to trigger a restart if oomph does the configuration change automatically or how to configure the option before the first IDE start.
